The Kaiju stood nearly a hundred meters tall and weighed over two thousand tons. A colossal creature like that could wreak devastating destruction.
The Philippine military received news of the Kaiju attacking Manila at once and hurriedly dispatched fighter jets and tanks to intercept it.
Manila was the capital of the Philippines. If it were destroyed by the Kaiju, the entire Philippines would likely be paralyzed.
What made things even worse was that the military did not dare use nuclear weapons against the Kaiju. Otherwise, before Manila could be destroyed by the Kaiju, it would first be devastated by the fallout from the nuclear blast.
With the military wary of throwing the baby out with the bathwater, they could only use fighter jets to lure the Kaiju away, hoping to draw it elsewhere before launching a nuclear strike.
Videos of the Kaiju rampaging through Manila were broadcast live by frontline reporters who feared neither death nor danger, making headlines around the world.
As those videos spread, world leaders urgently connected with one another and began discussing the Kaiju.
If the first Kaiju that attacked San Francisco could still be explained away as a pollution-induced mutation,
then the appearance of another giant Kaiju made that explanation far less convincing.

Although the missiles fired by the fighter jets could not deal fatal damage to the Kaiju, they could still hurt it.
If it were a mindless monster, being harassed by the fighter jets like this would have made it chase after them.
Yet this
